- As part of the multi-£M TSB AIRSTREAM project, effect of in-service impact damage on the structural integrity and damage tolerance of bonded crack retarders (BCRs) was investigated. The research showed that impact damage could cause a 55% reduction in fatigue performance of aerospace structures containing BCRs. The results informed Airbus on the significance of monitoring impact damage and its effect on the damage tolerance of aerospace structures containing BCRs.
